Bring Out Your Dead
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the Bring Out Your Dead ping list (formerly the Ebola ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the Bring Out Your Dead threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.
Well, they have 15,000 fever cases a day at their hospitals in the area... are they returning patients?
Caveat Term “confirmed cases” is a nice mean to conceal the size of the problem
If Hillary were President, the coronavirus epidemic would be a great reason to authorize five or ten million new "humanitarian" immigrants from China.
100% false positive? That’s interesting I have noticed that was Tarzan Ebola I was 100% wrong this time I think I’m right. It’s not going to be a big deal. I don’t think so although again oh, I’m not an epidemiologist. I just got so panicked over SARS and Ebola that I kind of learned my lesson about this. The media feeds a panic, the Apocalypse is coming...
This is similar to Y2K. I was panicked about that too but nothing happened.
And some point you kind of lose energy for all this manufactured panic. I have a friend whose 90 she’s very concerned she’s worried her granddaughter will catch it. I said Pat she won’t catch it in no way believe me she’s going to be fine. She said wouldn’t you be worried if your children had it? I said well of course but neither one of them are going to get it.
LOL... Yes, just one child’s life it’s worth it. LOL. Perhaps it will be the life of some inner-city child who would otherwise end up being shot by the time they were 18.
Well I guess I’m grumpier and more cynical than usual LOL. I’m actually not a cynical person but I can be grumpy. :-)
